On Saturday the 12th of December took place the 6th Bird race of Northern Greece in LakeKerkini. Our team “Krasopoulia”, me, Tasos, Babis and Eirini, took the first place along with the team “Birds out of limits”. Both teams recorded 83 bird species.

We went a day before for scouting and we found the Goosander that gave us the prize for the rarest species. In total 6 teams participated and 107 bird species were recorded.

The lake is foul of birds and apart from the great numbers of ducks that we saw, we also counted at least 7 Great Spotted eagles!
